Topic: OpenMPT 1.26 releases (Read 11923 times)

While we're already working eagerly on OpenMPT 1.27, Rakib spotted an issue with the plugin bridge on the latest Windows 10 update, so we decided to push out one (hopefully) last pure bugfix release for OpenMPT 1.26 addressing this and other issues found in the meantime: OpenMPT 1.26.05.00

Note that new and improved features (such as the new MIDI import and improved resampler) are not part of this update, as they would have required to pull in structural changes into OpenMPT 1.26 that are not well-tested yet.

It's nothing big in most cases; Previously the sample position and increment were stored as fixed-point numbers with a 16-bit fractional part; this was for example far too imprecise to pass some of the tests on the SRC comparison page - hence these tests are currently N/A. In this particular case, a test sample was resampled from 96 to 44 kHz for about 30 seconds, and after that period the theoretical sample position already differed from the actual position by a couple of samples. When choosing the built-in resampler in the sample editor's resampling dialog, this problem could manifest by loop points no longer being placed correctly after resampling - but only for very long samples.So while this was not a problem most of the time, I have still decided to increase the fractional part to 32 bits, which is more than enough.

Turns out it was not the last one! While it's still going to be a while until the first official release of OpenMPT 1.27, here's another release containing mostly bugfixes and improvements to existing features: OpenMPT 1.26.06.00.

Yet more bugfixes! A couple of possible crashes and other problems have been identified in the last few weeks and the bugfixes have been backported to OpenMPT 1.26.13.00. Other small improvements have been added as well.
